Domenica translates to “Sunday,” in Italian, it is the day of the week to explore and cook leisurely, abundant meals. At Domenica restaurant, our chefs seek to transport guests to those coveted moments, offering passionately prepared dishes that marry pure, local ingredients with revered techniques.

While the menu is rooted in tradition, our chefs focus on elevating Italian ingredients and classic flavors to create modern classics, adapted for the contemporary palate of New Orleans. The fresh pastas made by hand daily, roasted vegetables, meats and Napolitano style pizzas, all prepared in the restaurant’s iconic wood oven, are perfectly complemented by custom-brewed beers, seasonal craft cocktails and an Italian-focused wine list.

First, the bread tasted stale. I ordered the fried kale, it was excellent. Entrees were bucatini with pancetta in a red sauce, it was terrible, I sent It back. The pancetta was burnt and hard as a rock. Second Entrée was the risotto, it was good. The waiter was kind and agreed with the opinion on the bucatini. I don't think we will return.

Expensive hotel restaurant with small portions. Charcuteries are good but portions are small and expensive for what you get. Cauliflower needs other condiments or prep. Cheese is the only option. Needs some imagination from the chef. Tagliatelle is heavy and salty. Hanger steak tastes great but you only get 6 small slices. 80% of the hanger steak plate is accompaniments which are ok. My recommendations are to go to Irene’s or Muriel’s.

We are Swiss/Italian so we know well the Italian food. The arrabiata sauce was really too spicy. It was almost impossible to eat! The pizza was good. Matt the server very nice and he came to see us several times. on the other hand we had to wait 40 minutes to receive our dish which is really long for a pizza with ham and pasta with tomato…

We started with the Roasted Cauliflower which was excellent paired with a feta cheese spread and then had the Calabrese pizza. Of course she had a nice Pinot Grigio and I had a wonderful Pinot noir.

Great meal. Not so great service. No one cleared the table. Food came out in weird stages: people had meals and finished before other people got their meals. We all ate at different times. Drinks came out after meals arrived. Waiter barely checked on table

Pretty good. Waiter forgot the bread, remembered and told us and then proceeded to never bring it. Food needed a little salt and the salad could’ve used some black pepper but otherwise food was great. Wine was excellent. Was a little annoying that the mains were brought out before they cleared the app plates. Anyway, haven’t been here for awhile and I’d go back.

We had 8:30 pm reservation. Restaurant closes at 9pm. Plates taken away rapidly as if waiter wanted to go home. Waiter very serious, not welcoming. Asked for my order then looked over my head at something else while I was talking. Food bland and unexciting. Portion small for Red snapper. Son still hungry. Long wait for second drink. Worst restaurant so far in NOLA

Food was fantastic. Unfortunately, service declined throughout the meal, to the point where we had to go find our server to get our bill paid. Some tables seemed to get excellent service, though, which felt even odder.

Great pre-show dinner. Had the charcuterie board with an excellent selection of meat and cheeses. Also enjoyed the meatballs and lobster gnocchi. Finished with the coconut and chocolate bark dessert. Service was friendly and impeccable. We don’t go downtown too much anymore but will make an exception to go to Dominica.
